saving $400-$600 monthly. Saving & investments

[Remote]

Yeah I agree. I'd say everyone should probably have at least 5k saved up. 10k if you want to be extra comfortable. After that you should start investing.

Good idea.
But I think the issue is that a lot of people who might have 5k or 10k laying around might prefer to sink that into a house. Or wedding (#GMB)

Neither of which are probably good investments

But I'm just saying

I send all my "savings" into either government bonds, my Roth IRA, the Acorns app, my 401k or my OPERS account.
I'm on the brink of broke like 99% of the time though

You're losing the value of your money due to inflation

You really don't notice the lost value to be honest

When I took economics in high school we were told to track 3 stocks for a semester.

This was 1998/1999.
And I forgot 2 of them but one of them was definitely Biogen.

I looked it up and it was around $7 a share.
Today it's $313.

I should have invested that supermarket paycheck.
